Hi All,

Single applicant, Married, no accompanying spouse in the EE profile

ITA- 25th June
AOR- 16H August,
Biometrics submitted- 14th October
profile percentage- 86 %

I just notice that my UCI number on EE profile is different than the one on my study permit and work permit.
it is a 10 digit number on EE and 8 digits on study/work permit.

However, my friends who are single applicants and are not married, had their UCI number updated to their original UCI number from study/work permit.
Usually, UCI number changes to old UCI, from CAN00 To 8 digits, but for me, it changed to new 10 digits.

Is that something, I should be worried about?

I recently also received/approval for my Bridging work permit and it also has a new UCI number- 10 digit number, whereas when I submitted my form for Bowp, I used my 8 digit number from study/work permit

Please let me know!

Well, no need to worry, UCI can be 8 or 10 digits as per CIC website. Can't recommended you to use the newer UCI provided in the EE application before raising a webform query. They should ideally consolidate all into one, maybe they'll do it in the final stages.
